Limit 200 x 130 mm Flat Square

The Limit 200 x 130 mm flat square is a high-precision measuring and marking instrument engineered for professionals who require exact 90-degree alignment. This tool is essential for verifying squareness in metalworking, carpentry, and general engineering projects, providing a reliable reference for layout and quality control tasks. Its robust construction ensures long-term stability and consistent performance in demanding workshop environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this flat square is its exceptional dimensional stability, which allows for highly accurate angle verification and marking. The hardened material construction provides resistance to wear and deformation, ensuring that the tool maintains its precision over extended periods of intensive use. Its ergonomic design facilitates easy handling and precise placement against workpieces, making it an indispensable asset for achieving professional-grade results in fabrication and assembly.

Suitable for

• Checking 90-degree angles in metal fabrication
• Marking layout lines on wood or metal surfaces
• Verifying squareness during assembly tasks
• Quality control inspections in engineering workshops

When it may not be suitable

This flat square is not intended for measuring angles other than 90 degrees. It is also not suitable for heavy-duty prying or tasks that require a graduated scale for length measurement, as it is designed specifically for alignment and squareness verification.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 200 x 130 mm
• Material: Hardened steel
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Design: Flat square profile

How to use

To use the flat square, place the inner or outer edge of the tool firmly against the reference surface of your workpiece. Ensure that the base is flush with the edge to achieve an accurate reading. When marking, hold the square steady and use a marking tool along the edge to draw a precise perpendicular line. For checking squareness, observe the light gap between the square and the workpiece; any visible gap indicates a deviation from a true 90-degree angle.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 200 x 130 mm size is appropriate for your specific workpiece dimensions
• Ensure the tool is kept clean and free of debris to maintain measurement accuracy
• Consider the need for a protective case or storage area to prevent edge damage

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the square for nicks or burrs along the edges that could affect measurement accuracy. Store the tool in a dry environment and apply a light coat of oil if working in humid conditions to prevent surface oxidation.
